Other Details |
Other Information: |
Babies tend not to reveal themselves often and only got 1 macro shot of a newly hatched fry. There is a constant laying, hatching and growing process making it hard to track one batches progress. All adult snails in this tank were the originals from my other reports as the first 6 parents have been transferred to our 55g. |
